The Seventh Gambit

[The Red Queen appears on the video standing, poised, in the entranceway in front of the giant cookie Christmas tree. She gazes at the camera for a moment, as though waiting until she has everyone's attention, before speaking. Her message is broadcast on both the real side and mirror side networks simultaneously.]

Good morning, dear Real Things. I've been remiss so far in not appearing before you. By way of apology, I've arranged for a special holiday treat for you all. Dear Bill has implemented it beautifully.

[She raises both hands and gives a quiet clap before lowering them again, clasped in front of her. She's smiling serenely.]

Let me also say that the dear Mirrors are invited over should they wish to enjoy the festivities. You do deserve to have fun some of the time. I've even arranged special gifts for you a little later on.

In parting, I will give you this advice: Do not overindulge. Too many sweets before bedtime can upset your stomach and ruin your dreams.

[There's another brief pause, which she spends smiling, as though letting her words sink in. Then the video ends.

She will be available over the network to answer responses, but should anyone venture to the entranceway looking for her, she will not be there for in-person audiences.]

Oh. I thought the mansion was a special' large scale project.
shslliar: (Spooky!)

Oh. Then who originally built it? Just wondering.
shslliar: of a damaged girl? (How is it with the tears)

Huh. So there are things you don't know about. Either that, or you're hiding something.
shslliar: (It saves me time)

Mmmmmn....

Both. Probably both. I mean, you are giving me a choice here.
shslliar: (not a care in the world)

Maybe? Or, you'd probably deny it if I chose one or the other.

No offense!
shslliar: (pweese)

Oh, sorry. I'll try not to do that again.

[He still doesn't trust her.]

Uuuuum...

[He thinks for a moment. He shouldn't mention Alice, so perhaps he could ask about...]

What about the twins? And the others? Are they having fun with the cookies too?
shslliar: (and we all were happy)

That sounds great!

[So she doesn't keep track of them?]
shslliar: (Why are you marking x on that spot?)

[personal profile] shslliar 2017-12-20 06:09 am (UTC)(link)
I dunno. I'm sure having more fun here than where I was!
shslliar: (and we all were happy)

That sounds like really good advice! I'll try to enjoy every minute of this holiday!
